Reply to comment by Dat1BlackDude in Apple is the only leading global smartphone vendor to increase sales year-on-year driven by robust demand by preppythugg

Maybe, but Apple is incredible in how they keep growing. It’s been almost nonstop for like 20 years now.

Yes and it will stop one day. At least smartphones will. That should be within the next 2-3 years tbh. Unless there is another great leap in phones.

I think the folding phones is that leap. I’ve played with them at stores and they are pretty cool. Use to be a straight up android guy but had the iPhone 4s and 6s and switched back again with the release of the 11 and been with them since and I think if apple releases a folding phone they’d dominate the market.

Serious question, what about folding phones appeals to you? Just seems like a gimmick to me but maybe I’m missing something

They are a gimmick. A cool one. But nothing yet for main stream.

Being able to whip out an iPad if you need something a little bit bigger. I’m a builder so would be pretty cool to be able to pull out my phone and turn it into a tablet to make it easier to look at plans etc.

I think Apple still has tons of growth potential in India, particularly if they continue to move more of their manufacturing there (something which lowers the taxes on their devices considerably, because India’s tax laws are a bit shit)

Doubt it, Apple has a lot of “upgrades” in reserve. Areas where Android flagships have better features.
